How to Draw a Mind Map
Mind mapping relates to writing down a central idea and thinking up new and relevant ideas which radiate out from the center.
Look for relationships
Use lines, colors, arrows, branches or other ways of showing connections between ideas on your mind map.1.. Personalizing the map with your own symbols and designs will assist in your recall and understanding.
2.
All of these things promote linear(线性的)thinking while the idea of mind mapping is to think creatively and in anon-linear manner. There will be plenty of time for polishing the information later on. But at this stage, the most important thing is to get every possibility into the mind map that may be the key to your knowledge of a topic.
Write down key ideas
Some students find that using capital letters encourages them to get down only the key points. 3..You may, however, wish to write down some explanatory notes in lower cases. Some students do this when they revisit the mind map at a later date while others write such things as assessment criteria in this way.
Put the main idea in the center
Most students find it useful to turn their page on the side and do a mind map in “landscape” style. They put the main idea or topic in the middle of the page. 4..
Leave lots of space
5..After the initial drawing of the mind map you may wish to highlight things, add related information or questions right up.
A.Capitals are also easier to read in a diagram
B.Make a list all your ideas you need
C.This helps them assess the related information
D.Draw quickly without pausing, judging or editing
E.This gives the maximum space for other ideas to radiate
F.Some most useful mind maps are those adds over a period of time
G.These relationships may be important in understanding new information
Kitchen waste refers to deserted or uneaten refuse produced by household kitchens. It is heavy in weight and can not easily be disposed(处理)of like other garbage due to dampness.
Separating kitchen waste from other waste can help to reduce organic matter in landfills, reducing smell and waste liquid and protecting disposal equipment. It is therefore necessary to perform garbage classification when disposing of kitchen waste.
There are special garbage trucks to process kitchen waste. Labeled “Kitchen Waste”, the beds of the trucks are covered in a hermetic(密封的) metal topper to contain the smell of the rotting organic waste. There are two sizes of the trucks—the smaller ones are designed to move through narrow streets, especially in the old-fashioned hutong, the larger ones are for wider streets.
Everyday, they stop at the residential(居住的) communities in Xicheng district, pick up their kitchen waste and carry it to the kitchen waste transfer buildings nearby. And Fengrongyuan residential community is one of them. It has 10 residential buildings and 606 families. In the afternoon. Two garbage trucks arrive at the community to collect its kitchen waste. The community now has 31 sets of garbage cans. Every set has three cans in different colors, green for kitchen waste, blue for recyclable waste and grey for other garbage.
Yang Kun, an official of Financial Street office, said that if residents in the community can respect the waste regulations and make it a standard practice in their daily life, they could be rewarded for their efforts.
After the two trucks are loaded with kitchen waste at Fengronfyuan, they will leave for the Xibianmen garbage storage building, where they are weighed before driving to an area to unload. The building has six big boxes to contain the kitchen waste.
To save resources and promote the disposal of household waste, the first step is garbage classification as conducted by residents.

Do you think studying in a different country is something that sounds very exciting and great fun? Certainly, it is a new experience, one that brings the opportunity(机会) to discover amazing things and a feeling of freedom. But do remember that there are also some challenges you will meet, for your views may disagree with the different beliefs, norms(社会准则), values and traditions of different countries. This is called “culture shock”. The following are the stages of adjusting.
The first stage is called ”the honeymoon”, where you are excited about living in a different place, and everything seems to be fantastic.
Eventually, however, the second stage of culture shock appears, “the hostility stage”. You begin to notice that not everything that seemed so wonderful initially is now awful, making you feel distressed and tired. Usually at this point, you use some defense mechanisms(机制) to help you cope(应付) and to protect yourself against the effects of culture shock. Two of them are “repression”, which happens when you pretend that everything is acceptable and that nothing bothers you, and “regression”, when you start to act like a child, sometimes careless and irresponsible. The third kind is “isolation”. You don’t want to communicate with anybody, cutting yourself off the world. The last type is “rejection”, where you think you don’t need anybody, feeling you are coping fine alone.
After you deal with your hostile feelings, next comes the stage, “recovery”, when you begin to see things of a different culture you can learn to appreciate.
The last stage is “adjustment”. In this stage, you have reached a point where you actually feel good because you are able to understand the new culture.
Culture shock is not something you can avoid in a foreign country. Actually, you learn how to interact with other people, and you learn a considerable amount about life in a new culture. Eventually, you learn more-about yourself.
